    Handbook of Modern Dressing and Grinding Technologies Volume 2: Processes, Machines, and Practical Applications covers every facet necessary for a deep understanding of modern dressing, tool conditioning, and grinding processes. In addition to discussing the theoretical and fundamental aspects of these processes, the book also provides, via case studies, an extensive examination of their contemporary industrial applications. Chapters discuss both mechanical (stationary and rotary diamond tools; resin- and metal-bonded superabrasive grinding wheels) and non-mechanical (electro-chemical; thermal; ultrasonic) dressing processes. External cylindrical and centerless grinding are each investigated as well, as are internal cylindrical and surface grinding. Gear, tool, free form, jig, and cut-off grinding are also each given substantial coverage, as are monitoring and optimization techniques.

    Mechanical Joining by Material Flow provides sought-after experimental information on process design, process modeling, and joint characterization techniques for students, researchers, and engineering professionals who want to learn about advanced joining systems for lightweight materials. Chapters cover mechanical joining by plastic deformation, including clinching and self-piercing riveting, and friction-based processes, such as friction stir welding to form a mechanical joint. Though these processes are mainly used to establish metallurgical bonding, their unique characteristics and the material flow they generate has led to an increased use of these techniques for joining difficult-to-weld materials.Other sections introduce innovative technologies developed based on material flow to meet existing industry needs to join materials with different structural properties in different scales or shapes. To furnish readers with a more usefully comprehensive coverage, the team of experts behind the book has included methodological principles as well as discussions on advantages, drawbacks, and future directions of each technique, alongside application examples and case studies.
